Ephesians 1:4

even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love

-Ephesians 1:4

At this point, I don't think Paul quite gets into what these spiritual blessings are.  Instead, he starts with the words "even as" to mean a somewhat concurrency with the current idea.  "Even as" we have been blessed in Christ as Paul says in verse 3, what Paul says in verse 4 happens as well.  God has blessed us and he has already chosen us long before he made the world.  So, we have already been blessed, but it goes even further back than that because we were chosen even before he created the world.  Take a step back and think about how amazing that is.  Before the world, God had already picked you out.  So, this begs the question, "chosen for what?".  We are chosen "that we should be holy and blameless before him".  We have already been set aside to be the holy and blameless ones.  Now, that by itself doesn't really mean much I guess.  However, it probably should be said that even though God knew we would be dead in our trespasses and sins, he still decided to pick us out to be holy and blameless before him.  This means that he already decided to make us holy and blameless before him, because we can't make ourselves holy and blameless.  How amazing is that?  Way before God created it all, he decided to pick you out and make you holy, even knowing you'd be dead in your sins and against him.  It is hard to fathom such a thing, yet it is what our loving heavenly father has done for us.  "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ".
